Question

Creating Chat beside the Stream

I have noticed sites like Justin.tv and Ustream use your software and so does my site now for live streaming. I am just wondering how I could add the chat bar on the side like they do for my website.
Is there a guide or anything I could look at to get this up and running for me?

    I wasn't familiar with Justin.tv as a web site. Sorry .. I looked at it and see the chat.

    If you right click on the chat, you'll see it is not a 'flash player' program. Most likely they are doing it with ajax.

    But this type of solution would be relatively easy to do with FMS, although I have a 'gut feeling' that an ajax solution would be cheaper than paying for FMS hosting with connections.

    I think www.123flashchat.com might be something prebuillt but I haven't looked at it for a year or so. www.influxis.com also has a number of "free apps" that you can use with your FMS subscription which I think includes some sort of text chat.

    Or perhaps something like https://blueimp.net/ajax/ ??

    Or are you looking to write something like this yourself with flash or flex and FMS?

    >>chat bar?

    Like a chatting live on the site between current users on the site?

    Or on demand live chat with a service representative?

    I'm not sure what your website uses as a "chat bar".
